Bishopstone is a very attractive village on the spring line on the north edge of the Berkshire Downs overlooking the Vale of White Horse. The village is on the route of the ancient Icknield Way and, high in the Downs, half a mile to the south is the Ridgeway national trail. Near the centre of the village is this large mill pond.

The parish church of St. Mary the Virgin is mainly Perpendicular but it possesses on the north side an exquisite late Norman doorway. The church was restored after a fire in 1891. The interior is bright with just one stained glass window of 1994, depicting the church and its setting.
